About Us

Artists

Are you an artist who’s passionate about wildlife and wants to make a difference?

At Champions for Wildlife, we believe that art has the power to inspire the next generation of wildlife stewards. We’re always looking for creative minds to help children fall in love with the natural world—because when kids connect with wildlife through art, it sticks with them for life.

There are many ways to share your talent with us
 
  • Contribute Artwork

    Your wildlife paintings or drawings could appear on our website, in classrooms, and across our outreach materials.

  • Design Coloring Pages

    Create coloring pages of U.S. native wildlife for our growing Kids Corner activity hub.

  • Wildlife Photography

    Share your wildlife photography to help bring our mission to life visually.

  • How-To Videos

    Help kids create art at home by crafting how-to videos for at home projects.

In return, we’ll proudly feature your name on our Contributing Artists page to recognize your generosity and talent. Not only could you inspire a child to care more deeply about nature—you might also connect with families who fall in love with your work.

We’d love to explore how we can collaborate!

Whether you’re a professional artist, photographer, or creative hobbyist, there’s a place for you in our mission. Let’s use the magic of art to help shape a brighter future for wildlife—and for the kids who will protect it.
